Smartphones, legos, Rocky, Disneyworld, Mary Poppins. These all have something in common. They are completely original! When we take the time to understand the story behind Steve Jobs and the smart phone or legos and Ole Kirk Christiansen, we begin to more fully appreciate legos or smartphones in an entirely different way than we did before.

The truth is...when we begin to find the story behind the creation we begin to really see the value for it. I think we need to learn how to put this into practice far more than we do. We always do with our own creations because we lived it! We need to take time to do this with others creations such as the smartphone or legos, just two examples of so many things in the world that have helped make our world a better place. We will begin to appreciate the movies we watch, the books we read, the phones we do everything on, the legos we build with, the places we visit when we take the time to really realize the process that went behind it.

When we begin to appreciate and be thankful for these people and how they helped make the world a better place it helps to inspire us and to encourage us that we also have something inside of us that only you or I can offer to make the world a better place. We begin to see the value in being different and embracing this and then beginning to share when we realize the influence we can have to help our world move forward.

Let's never stop creating from the heart of who we are which inspires each other. Let's always take time to educate ourselves on the process so we can always value the history. That the failures AND accomplishments all are part of moving forward, and together designing the future! Let's remember that this all matters and it helps others to know you understand and value all they sacrificed for what they brought into this world.

Oh I remember when I was young the movie Amadeus had a big impact on me appreciating Mozart, his talents as a prodigy, and his relationship with others! A little bit of context about how something original was created really can add considerable value to the work

Hey. I'm Chelsea and love to be encouraged by other Moms during the season of being one myself to my three children. I want to share what we are learning in hopes to inspire other moms and also to help encourage kids to learn to love "the process" of learning and growing. That is my dream in this space.

I would love for you to reach out to me and share your story! I would love to hear from you!
